“As a first-time investor navigating the Brisbane market from the UK, I couldn’t have asked for a better partner than Steve Ash. Steve’s expertise in investment properties was evident from our first conversation. Despite the time difference, he was incredibly accommodating, always available to answer my questions and explain the intricacies of the buying process in Queensland.
Steve’ took the time to understand my investment goals, and ensured I felt confident and informed at every step. I was impressed by Steve’s comprehensive knowledge of current market trends in Brisbane and he went above and beyond to find properties that aligned with my budget and objectives.
If you’re an investor, especially one overseas, I wholeheartedly recommend Steve Ash. He’ll make the entire experience smooth, educational, and (dare I say) enjoyable. Thanks to Steve, I now own my first investment property in Brisbane.”

“Steve put forward off-market properties before they’ve been advertised, which he’s sourced through his extensive network. And even though we’ve given him our ceiling budget, he always worked within, never pressuring us for more than what we can afford.”

“Steve was recommended by a mate of mine who bought a property last year through Steve’s help. The timing was perfect as the wife and I have been looking but have not had any luck. What I liked about Steve is that he applied the same high standards in evaluating a property as he would if he was using his own money to buy it. There were properties where we thought were good enough, but Steve would advise against due to reasons we might not have considered (e.g., flood map etc). He also put forward off-market properties before they’ve been advertised, which he’s sourced through his extensive network. And even though we’ve given him our ceiling budget, Steve always worked within, never pressuring us for more than what we can afford. I highly recommend Steve as not only is he an expert in the property market, but he is a very honest and hard-working bloke who will do the right thing by you.”
